PHoToGRAPHING A DEAD WIFE.
Avon, Mich, Excited Oyer an Extra
ordinary Proceeding.
From the Mem YORK World.


AVON, MICH, March 6.-s'We'll vet
make black bird of him thatll smell of
tar" said citizen yesterday, referring
to Charles Adams, who startled and in
censed the community by an act without
parallel in the history of the State. On
Feb. Mrs. Adams died, and on Feb. 81
was buried. Friday Mr.. Adams an
nounced to a few friends that he intended
to have his wife's body disinterred and a
Photograph taken OF her as she lay in her
coffin. Strenuous objection was made by
Mrs. Adams relatives, who urged that, as
there were several good ltkenesses Of
Mrs. Adams, no excuse existed for the
proposed Dissertation. Adams persisted
however, and early yesterday morning.
with the sexton and his assistants, went
to the cemetery and began throwing the
frozen earth from the newly made grave.
In half an hour crowd collected,
among them the mother OF Mrs. Adams
and other more distant relatives, many of
whom wept as the work proceeded.
After an hours work the GOTTA was
reached, and before the lid WAS removed
Adams was again urged by Mrs. Adams
relatives not to persist in his work. He
would not yield his preference, however,
and though surrounded by a crowd of
weeping and wailing women, and men
VINO threatened violence, he ordered the
lid to be removed. This was done and
the face OF the dead was exposed to view
at the bottom of the grave.
The coffin was lifted out and removed
to where it could be placed against a
background of snow-cOvered evergreens,
and was photographed in the presence of
fully one-half of the villagers. The lid
was then replaced on the coffin, and Mrs.
Adams WAS buried the second time.
Soma of the townspeople believe that
Adams is insane.

his homely way:
"There is a pension circular paper of a

THE WOMAN'S RELIEF CORPS BALL.
1t Fails to Prove as Much of Success as Was
Expected by the Ladies.

Old volunteer army circles were we'll repre-
sented at the ball given by the Woman's Relief
Corps of George II. Thomas Post at Tomlinson
Hall last night The attendance, however, did
not reach expectations or represent one-half the
tickets sold, but there was no lack of enjoyment
in the round of dances. In the quadrilles twen-
ty-five thirty sets were the limit, while the
waltzes and lancers were not so popular. Suit
able decorations were displayed on the stage of
camp scenes and collections Of flags and ban
ners. In the balcony here and there were
groups Of spectators. who. with those on the
lower floor, numbered 200 or more. While the
lady managers were no doubt disappointed at
the result, they had the qualification of knowing
that their effort found sufficient favor to it
from failure. Among those present were Judge
Byron K. Elliott. Hon. Stanton j. Peelle, Gen
erals Foster. McGinns and Carnahan, Major
James x. Ross, Captain Wles, Charles Haugh,
Wilbur F. Hit and r. r. ShicI, with their fam
lilies. while the bachelor element of George III.
Thomas was we'll represented.

words of warning to Democrats.

New York Sun (Dem-l
Protection has long been prominent feature
of our national policy, and when the proposition
is made to disturb it. even the one-sided argu-
ment that such an act is needed to dispose OF the
surplus in the Treasury would be swept aside
CONTEMPORARY by the more vital considerations
which would at once present themselves IN OPP
position. =,
If the bill to reduce the revenue should
threaten to disturb the principle of protection
and should be rejected by the Senate, the dlsap-
pointment at the continuance OF the surplus
would be as nothing compared with the fervor
with which the Republicans, the avowed cham
pions of protection, would be supported In the
next national election.
The tariff reformers must not suffer them
selves to be deluded as to the weightier facts of
the situation by the recent and unquestionably
powerful addition of presidential influence to
reason or see the whole Democratic organiza-
tion which the final recovery of supremacy at
Washington has stimulated to unprecedented
growth, put out of power for an indefinite
DeriOd.

The death of Mrs. Amos Robbins. of Remsen

seems that Mrs. Robbins had been suffering
from q severe cold for some time, and the treat
msnt given her seemed to have no effect On
Monday evening of last week Mr.. Robbins, a
non believer the efficiency of his wifes medl-

ciau, DR.. S. Fleet Spier, OF Montague street
The doctor was summoned in great haste, and
found Mrs. Robbins suffering from pneumonia.
He wasnaturally surprised to find that no ply
stefan had been called to attend the patient. al
though she had been very i'll all of the night be-
fore.
Il did everything I could.n said the doctor
this morning but the patient was in dying
condition. Even then DR.. Little, my assistant,
stayed by the bedside all night. and everything
that advised By the consulting physician,
DR.. Deiafeld. of New York, was tried. but it
was too late to save the patients life. The rea-
son that was called in at all was that the mind
healers had given up the case, and were calmly
awaiting death. With the mind healers. every
thing with them Is for the best Whatever
happens is right according toetheir theory.
Why. not long ago one of my patients
was chatting on the street with
friend who believer IN the mind

ladies had an umbrella and my patient excused
herself and started for the nearest store door.
Her friend detained her. and looking at her in
